Hmmm..so Hydro Ottawa directly cause 400 of their employees to be off work for 90 days and not receive a paycheque yet you win a Canada's Top 100 Employers award in the 19th annual National Capital Region's Top Employers (2024). #YouGottaBeKidding
Last night Hydro Ottawa workers voted to accept an offer. It was hard fought and it was long, but our members are more united as a workforce than ever before.
They are grateful for your #solidarity and look forward to getting back to work and powering Ottawa safely.

For the 2nd time Hydro Ottawa deferred its 2022 annual presentation to City of Ottawa council.
Is it because they didn't want to face their workers who showed up in impressive numbers yesterday?
Day 79, but as this picture shows - they are not broken. They are united and strong.
Mike Hall said Hydro Ottawa [is] the most difficult employer.
“It’s old-school...They think if they have lots of grievances they’re managing their people properly. But how is that 2023 thinking? In all my other employers, the goal is zero grievances.”

In 2015 it cost Halifax Water $2 Million for AFIMAC Global security services during their 2 month strike.
How much has it cost Hydro Ottawa to employ #AFIMAC for this strike nearing 3 months in today's $$$?
+SCAB contractors? City of Ottawa #ottnews #audit

🚨SCAB ALERT🚨
Today we're picketing #JetElectricalContractors in Gananoque because they continue to cross our picket lines.
They are hurting members fighting for a fair deal.
Hydro Ottawa workers have been on strike for 77 days. There is no excuse to do this.
#RespectTheLine
Hydro workers on strike for 11 weeks will rally outside City of Ottawa hall Wednesday as Hydro Ottawa reports on their 2022 performance to the Mayor and City Council.
Come walk in #solidarity with the workers who keep the lights on and #Ottawa safe.✊
🙏Horizon Ottawa #FairDealNow
We are union strong on Day 74.
Hydro Ottawa is coming back to the negotiating table this week and our team is meeting with City of Ottawa Mark Sutcliffe.
Thanks Jagmeet Singh and the NDP caucus for your #solidarity and giving a morale boost to hydro workers.
#EnoughIsEnough
Yesterday we were honoured to have NDP leader Jagmeet Singh and his caucus walk the talk and stand in #solidarity with our dedicated Hydro Ottawa workers on DAY 71 of strike.
We're fighting for fair wages, workers' rights, and a brighter future for all. #HydroOttawaStrike
Shame on Hydro Ottawa.
Are your employees supposed to believe you care about them when you ignore our calls for 2 weeks?
You are punishing your workers.
We demand City of Ottawa council and Mark Sutcliffe make Hydro come back to the table.
This is toxic behaviour. #71DAYS
It's DAY 70 since Hydro Ottawa workers went on strike for safety, benefits, wages and respect.
The company isn't answering our calls to meet.
The CEO says he can't give 1% more to support his workers, yet 4 Hydro execs got $750K in BONUSES in 3 years? 👀
It doesn't add up.
Happy #LabourDay !
69 days ago Hydro Ottawa CEO said worker safety concerns were just them 'throwing spaghetti at the wall'.
Since the strike, he's admitted the safety issues were 'valid'.
Hydro workers deserve safety AND a fair deal Mark Sutcliffe.
